Ten days left until the day called ”fettisdagen” – with other words ”the fat Tuesday” – is here. It is the day when people here in Sweden eat a bun or a roll called ”semla”. ”Semla” is a bun or a roll filled with a very good almond cream and a lot of whipping cream. But why wait ten days more when you are going by a bakery well-known for its very tasty ”semla”? Like the bakery ”Lilla Maräng” in the little town of Järna outside Södertälje?

The buns that they do are not only very tasty but also made with ecological ingredients from producers in the neighborhood. Last Friday I was in Järna and of course, I came home with ”semla”. The best with a ”semla” is the almond cream – I love it!
